Winners: Jordynne Grace & Rachael Ellering
- On Saturday, Sami Callihan has a big task ahead of him when he faces Kenny Omega for the Impact World Championship. The Draw is all about this business. He believes wrestlers like Omega, who disrespect the business in his eyes, deserve to take a brutal beatdown from him. He looks forward to the challenge and to bring the title home. If he wins, this will be his second run with the belt.

-We take a look at Deonna Purrazzo's impressive two-time reign as the Knockouts Champion. The Virtuosa has a date with destiny on Saturday when she finds out who her partner will be that night. As Gail Kim warned her last week, her world might change that night.
.@DeonnaPurrazzo won the Knockouts Championship at #Slammiversary last year and has spent much of the year DOMINATING the division.
But will a mystery opponent be her undoing at #Slammiversary? #IMPACTonAXSTV pic.twitter.com/UN9BjLICRb
— TNA Wrestling (@ThisIsTNA) July 16, 2021
At Scott D'Amore's Office: Purrazzo is hesitant to sign her title contract without knowing who her opponent is. D'Amore assures her she needs to sign this in case she loses her title. That way, she can use her rematch clause. She decides to sign it. As D'Amore walks away, Purrazzo asks him one more time. He replies with "No Way Jose" and walks away. Tommy Dreamer sticks his head in and says No Way Jose isn't the person. Dreamer wishes her luck ahead of her title match.
"I know sometimes things around here get to be a little bit of a hot mess but Slammiversary is truly going to be iconic. We're in Nashville here...might be a little hardcore country."@DeonnaPurrazzo expressed her frustrations about #Slammiversary to @ScottDAmore. #IMPACTonAXSTV pic.twitter.com/r8MkPj3W8I

Steelz jumps in fear and makes her way back into the ring. Havok tosses Steelz into the corner with a buckle bomb. Next, Havok throws Steelz across the ring with a powerful Irish Whip.

Coming back from the break, Havok is waiting for Steelz to get back on her feet in the corner. Steelz is up. Havok charges towards her. Steelz ducks under and plants a swinging neckbreaker!

Backstage: Brian Myers asks Hernandez to come back and join him tonight. Hernandez politely declines, saying that Johnny Swinger is paying him better, so his alliance is with Swinger now. Myers then asks another mysterious person if he'll have his back tonight.
